ABSTRACT

The small parsimony problem is studied for reconstructing recombination networks from sequence data. The small parsimony problem is polynomial-time solvable for phylogenetic trees. However, the problem is proved NP-hard even for galled recombination networks. A dynamic programming algorithm is also developed to solve the small parsimony problem. It takes $O(dn2^{3h})$ time on an input recombination network over length-$d$ sequences in which there are $h$ recombination and $n - h$ tree nodes.
